Arian Moayed’s web series is perfect for these dark and dangerous times.
Though best known for playing Stewy Hosseini on the HBO series “Succession,” Moayed is the writer-director of “The Accidental Wolf, a thriller that perfectly embodies the 2020s with its twisty plotlines about military cover-ups set against a backdrop of racial and cultural tensions, presidential conspiracy theories and (potentially) manmade epidemics.
Yet the scripts written by Moayed for the show, which streams exclusively on Topic, have often proven to be ahead of its time too, considering the latest chapter of “The Accidental Wolf” was filmed in 2018 and 2019, with the first season written in 2015 and the genesis of the series dating back to 2011.
